Ogier 2022 Artesis Blanc - 750ml

 The Ogier Artesis Blanc is a delightful white wine from the Côtes-du-Rhône region. Let me share some details about it:

• Terroir: The vineyards benefit from a mix of galets (large rounded stones) for power, argilo-calcaire (clay-limestone) for finesse, and sands. The Mistral wind plays a crucial role as a natural pesticide.
• Grapes: It’s an assemblage of three grape varieties: Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, and Viognier.
• Tasting Notes: Expect a burst of exotic fruits, apricot, white peach, and vanilla on the nose. The palate is rich and textured, with a refreshing finish. It’s a seductive wine with great balance.
• Winemaking: Early harvest preserves exotic fruit aromas. Slow, controlled fermentation maintains complexity. No malolactic fermentation to retain freshness.
• Pairing: Enjoy it with noble seafood, delicate fish, poultry, charcuterie, or cheeses.
